“UK families are paying four times, five times what Americans are paying for electricity.”
JD Vance is rightly outraged that government policy is causing Britons hardship.
Because of @Ed_Miliband
TR G - The Royal Grift@TheRoyalGrift
🔥BURN! Vice President JD Vance comments on UK government economically crushing British citizens, & don't want to hear from the public expressing discontent. Instead, bureaucrats are censoring voices because they can't handle the criticism. "There is just so much wrong with the political leadership..." @danwootton @insiderlauren @TRobinsonNewEra

@StriderCT @spacegovuk Volcano. I know little about the celestial bodies around us. That our moon had volcano is amazing.
Thank you.

@EdOfWraxall @spacegovuk The Orientale basin. Consequence of ancient volcanic activity after a big impact. Probably the youngest - and certainly the most significant - formation of its kind on the Moon.

Fly me to the Moon. 🌕
These stunning pictures were taken by the Artemis II crew during their pass over the lunar far side.
The crew are now heading back to Earth, with NASA targeting 11 April for splashdown off the coast of San Diego. 🌍

How's that big boost to UK GDP from an EU "Reset" working out, @Keir_Starmer?
Andrew Neil@afneil
The nut zealotry of Ed Miliband A new occasional series — No 3 Massive Silicon Valley company OpenAI has today paused its major Stargate UK data centre infrastructure project, citing high energy costs and the regulatory environment in the UK. UK industrial energy costs are the highest in the world (thanks, Ed). OpenAI and other AI giants are worried that Starmer’s desire (backed by Ed) to cosy up closer to the EU will mean AI in the UK coming under the Brussels’ regulatory regime, which is killing off AI projects in the EU.

JD Vance said UK families pay "four to five times" what Americans pay for electricity.
The actual figures:
UK: 24.7p/kWh (Ofgem, April 2026)
US national average: 18.05¢/kWh — approx 13.9p (EIA, April 2026)
That's 1.75x. Not 4-5x.
Also per EIA: US states with more renewables have seen prices fall. States with fewer have seen them rise.
Sources: Ofgem. US Energy Information Administration.

@BobFlemming19 @ZionistAF2 @allenanalysis Is that the same Pakistan that kept bin laden hidden for years.
Or allow the Quetta Shura to go equally as unchecked?
That Pakistan?

@ZionistAF2 @allenanalysis In today’s things that didn’t happen
Pakistan has been a trusted negotiator for years
You don’t use a negotiator if you believe them to misrepresent
Doesn’t happen
Vance is rowing back saying it’s a “reasonable misunderstanding”!

Israel knew, but they don’t care

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING: Pakistan just said it directly.
The ceasefire included Lebanon.
Not implied. Not assumed. Not lost in translation.
Included.
Pakistan’s Prime Minister put it in the announcement. In writing. With U.S. involvement.
And now Israel is bombing Beirut. And Vance calls it a “reasonable misunderstanding.”
And Netanyahu says Lebanon was never part of the deal.
Someone is lying.

Iran has rejected US ceasefire talks after Trump’s ‘wipe out Iranian civilisation’ threats and told mediators (via Pakistan mediators) it will no longer participate in negotiations.
Trump’s 8pm (NYC time) deadline looms.
Andrew Neil@afneil
President Trump threatens to wipe out Iranian civilization if Tehran doesn’t cede to his demands by 8pm New York time (1am London) tonight (Tuesday). “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump writes on his Truth Social platform. Is there anybody, any group capable of staging an intervention in the White House?

Surprised the US isn’t higher given they have the right to bear arms

Morning routine: Wake up, shave, make the bed, witness something that's never before been seen by human eyes. The Artemis II crew is preparing for today's lunar flyby, when they will see the Moon's far side.

I appreciate the informality of this missive, with Trump resorting to the more colloquial Fuckin’ -with an apostrophe- as opposed to the long-form “Fucking” more typical of written Presidential communiques
